Total syntheses and biological investigations of tamandarins A and B and tamandarin A analog

Tamandarins A (1) and B (2), two natural products similar in structure to didemnin B (3), were recently isolated from a Brazilian marine ascidian of the family Didemnidae. The cytotoxicity of 1 was reported to be somewhat more potent in vitro than that of 3 against various human cancer cell lines. The present account describes the first total syntheses of 1 and 2, and the syntheses of tamandarin A side chain analogues. The cytotoxicity data for these compounds show that the side chain modifications exhibit a parallel effect for both didemnins and tamandarins. This observation supports tamandarins' role as didemnins' mimic.

Enantioselective and diastereoselective formation of syn-3-hydroxy-4-amino acids (syn-statines) via tetramic acids

Enantiomerically pure pyrrolidine-2,4-diones (tetramic acids) which can be diastereoselectively hydrogenated to syn-statines (4-amino-3-hydroxy-6-methylheptanoic acids) have been prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of 4-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-3-oxocarboxylic acid esters.
